To record NTSC colour system programmes
NTSC colour signals can be recorded on this VCR from the line input
(LINE-1 IN) only. Display “L” in the display window using INPUT SELECT
or PROG +/– in step 3.
For tape speed, select SP or EP in step 4.
EP (Extended Play) provides recording time three times as long as SP,
however, SP produces better picture and sound quality.
When playing a tape, the VCR automatically detects the tape speed.
Tips
• To select a programme position, you can use the programme number buttons on the
remote commander. For two-digit numbers, press the ? (ten’s digit) button
followed by the programme number buttons.
• You can select a video source from the LINE-1 IN jacks. Press INPUT SELECT or
PROG +/– to display “L” in the display window.
• The display appears on the TV screen indicating information about the tape, but the
information will not be recorded on the tape.
• If you do not want to watch TV while recording, you can turn off the TV.
• You can have the VCR stop recording automatically after starting at a specified
time. For details, see “Setting the recording duration time” on page 39.
Notes
• The display does not appear during still (pause) mode or slow-motion playback.
• It may take up to one minute for the VCR to calculate and display the remaining
tape length after you press DISPLAY.
• The remaining tape length does not appear while playing or recording in the NTSC
system.
